I absolutely love this coat, but it seems to run VERY small. I have a "WarmUp Parka" in XL which fits fine and I can wear any of my heavy sweaters under it. But, the XL in this was Way too narrow in the shoulders, the arms and across the chest. And it doesn't come in larger sizes. If you can go up a size, I would reccomend doing it. It is a nice coat.
I can't imagine why someone wouldn't like this lightweight coat that doesn't weigh you down. It is warm, and looks exactly as pictured. No, it's not real shearling that itches and weighs too much for comfort. If you want real shearling, remember the cost. This warm coat is a real bargain.
I love the look of these faux shearling coats. The problem is they are very difficult to put on because the acrylic on the inside catches on your clothes. It needs to have the look of shearling on the outside, but have nylon lining on the inside, at least inside the sleeves. Then it would be much more practical. As it is, I returned mine.
